Another Bargain or Bust Facebook Camaro?!? Low Mileage 1986 Z28 Tuned Port Injection! Will It Run?!?
I’ve been on the lookout for a clean third gen Camaro for a some time and this one came up on Facebook Marketplace and seemed like a good deal. I made the deal and brought it home. Allegedly it was some undercover car out east aquired as part of a sting and only had 34k miles on it but had been sitting for years and needed a fuel pump to run again. Let’s find out if that’s the case and get this Camaro back on the road. If you’d like to own the car as shown in this video it can be yours for $1,500 USD. As always, thanks for watching!

how to repair windows 7
When you flashed back to loading it in the barn, I seen that guy and was waiting to hear " Dan, DD Speed Shop here"
Ah, fire with Mortske, like old times
Well done!
Shot paying more than a grand for that is mind blown you must be buying the shop on payments cuz just garbage nothing got about it
You got totally played. You just blew $3,200 on a $300 clunker. At your age don't you know enough to look a vehicle over better before you buy it?
not a good idea to run them electric fuel pumps very much with no fuel in them, though. My understanding they are actually lubricated by the fuel inside them.
Glad to see you included the Duff in the Mortske Repair Minute.😊
How about a Ford Grand Torino for next week or some time. Not a lot of people work on them.
Thirdgens now are all like what you bought, that ones not really that bad.
The only people that ever owned them were beating the crap out of them since new. Just assume every iroc or transam has been crashed before, or a poor teenager repaired it. Theres not many nice ones left out there.
Iv personally owned about 15 of them and only kept one that i built was worth a restoration with an ls swap.
And for the love of god dont lift a thirdgen by the rocker. You have to bend your ass over and hit the frame rail by the transmission.
The easiest way to show you never owned an F or A body is closing the door by the window glass, that will get you shot or beat up.
That car isn’t that bad , I honestly don’t think it’s a parts car but it’s not a show car either 😂
Great stuff. I would have loved to see an ls swap on that though. I get it, not the right car to spend the time and money on.
Ya,. My third gen Firebird that I put Iroc Z and trans am suspension parts on turned it into a truck ride. My ebay and junkyard TPI swap runs really reliably, even when it tried to identify as a 4 cyl because the left and right banks have their own fuse and the left fuse decided it didn't want to make contact anymore till I shoved some extra metal in there to make it work.
Man you made that way harder on yourself than you needed to. You could’ve probably gotten away with tapping on the original injectors with something and it would’ve freed them up
Such a crappy fuel system. I'd rather have a carb or TBI.
That guy that sold it to you is extremely special.
Live and learn from mistakes at this point I would be a genius with the mistakes that I have made. Best wishes for you Morske. Duff is a good boy. I love how excited he gets and wags his tail
Good.job Nice car camaro good show 😍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Mortske's face after that burnout is pretty much why we all have one of these POS's still sitting next to our shops.
Excellent video Mortske 🙂 , MOJO 🙂 , Duff Dog 🐕,, I remember my late Uncle Bill JR had 1985 Chevrolet Camaro Berlinette one with 5.7 350 V8 motor 4 barrel carb, true daul exhaust with T Tops , 700SR 4 speed Automatic transmission, all power options plus lock hub caps with 377 posi rear gears in blue with black interior! Then 1989 trade in for Chevrolet Camaro RS I-Roc Cherry Red with Chrome trim , 5.0 litre 305 High Output , Air Conditioning, Power Steering, Tilt Steering wheel, Power brakes, Am/ Fm Cassette radio, power trunk with security system, windows, mirrors, sunroof , plus option was tunnel cover in trunk lid keep groceries for get hot summer season or luvers on back plus 5 spare tire same 4 wheels ! In 2008 to 2009 he got me restoration to new full frame plus true daul exhaust, put 1976 Chevrolet Impala LS rad 4 core with 2002 Chevrolet Impala car electrical fan sensor take clutch one ! Plus made 305 with 350 heads valves also cam plus rebuilt motor too , get shift kit 700SR 4speed Overdrive Automatic transmission with 390 rear gears it went lots faster plus had Black Interior to also want GM Delco Alternator rebuilt plus Starter to , original radio with Equalizer controls plus new speakers to ! Car appraisal for $15.000 too and after he past away in 2011 sold for $5,000! That car was super nice much with memories too!
Def not low mileage but more solid than I can find in NY. The salt got them and the only one that survived were the ones that never drove in the winter or were redone before they were gone. A lot of people are going down south or to the Midwest to pick them up
As always great video Mortske! Thank you for your time effort and knowledge. An inspiration to us all.
I can’t believe there wasn’t an “accidental” engine fire. Appreciate your patience and troubleshooting!
You could sell this back to Thor at your price, he could resell it now that you have it running, misrepresent it some more and make a killing.
I love your dog Duff
